tour of colonia

sunday afternoon we left for our 5 day trip to uruguay. we traveled as a group via buque bus (bookay booos). the buque bus is about an hour long fast ferry across the rio de la plata. becuase it was so fast you couldnt walk around up top, which is obviously one of the best parts of ferries, but it was still a fun easy way to travel.

we arrived to colonia on friday night, after dropping our stuff off in the hotel our whole group was taken to a delicious pizzeria/pasta restuarant. that night there was a lightening storm across the river, after dinner most of the kids on my trip went up to the roof top terrace to watch the storm, it was really beautiful.

we stayed at an unbelievable hotel, i think it was actually a hostel, but it seemed more like a hotel because it was a huge house, with many rooms, and it had an angel/cherub theme.
